SOUTHWESTERN NEBRASKA.
McCooK , XKK. , March 29. The town of
McCook is located in 1'ed Willow county ,
situated in the Grand llepublican Valley ,
one of the most productive ami beautiful
valleys in the west.
THIS COUXTV
is the third east of the Colorado line in the
.southern tier ; has an area of 720 square miles ,
or 400,800 acres. In 18SO the population was
: ; ,044which since has increased to about 8,000.
The general surface of the country is undu
lating or sloping , and from top to bottom of
the slope it is from one-half to two miles
across. At the tpp of the slope there are
what is called "flats. " ' These Hats are from
two to twenty miles in extent , and almost a
perfect level , with no rock , gravel , stumps ,
or anything of the kind to hinder fanning
operations. As I write I can look out on
this magnificent scenery , where corn rows
can be made on a straight lino live miles
long , and can see the rows nearly the entire
distance. The uplands , or divide-lands , are
considered the best lands andmobt productive.
TIII : SOIL.
is a rich , deep alluvial loam , from three to
live feet in depth , very productive , and is
capable of supporting a population as dense
: is any portion of the East. It seems pecu
liarly adapted to this country , absorbing
moisture very rapidly and retaining it with
remarkable tenacity. The subsoil is com
posed of a light yellow clay with some sand ,
and that is underlayed with limestone , and
is especially adapted to drouth , although
there has been sullicient rainfall for hcveral
years past to mature all kinds of crops , and
the rainfall has been visibly increasing , and
appearances indicate an abundance for
growing purposes , lied Willow county is
one of the most productive as well as the
must beautiful in the Republican Valley , and
is capable of sustaining a population five
times greater than it now contains , and it
will not be during our generation that the
West will hold the drawbacks of the over
crowded East. There has been
NO COAL
or other minerals discovered in this county ,
but a fair grade of magnesian limestone is
found , which is used for foundations and
building purposes , and makes a very sub
stantial structure.
The county is watered by the following
STHEAMS :
Ilepublican river runs through the county
from west to east ; Beaver and Driftwood
creeks on the south , and lied Willow and
Coon creeks on the north , empty into the
Republican river in the county , except the
Beaver. Beaver and lied Aillow creeks
furnish a fair water power , as also does the
Ilepublican river. There is considerable
timber found along these streams , which is
used for posts , corrals , fuel , etc. Posts are
worth eight cents a piece in the timber : wood
s'J per cord in the tree. This is a
I51CII AG1MCULTUKAL COUXTV ,
and the land is held principally by those who
entered and perfected the titles under Gov
ernment laws. There is no railroad land
here. Land sells at from ? S to $ ] . " > per acre ,
according to location and improvement. Un
cultivated land , .seven or eight miles from
.station , can be had for § 5 or 5(5 ( per acre.
Some relinquLshnieuts to claims can be bought
from § : ] 00to § 800 per claim of ICO acres. Let
me give you an instance or two :
There is one farm of ftiO acres , fine smooth
level land , can cultivate .IS acres , nine miles
from station10 acres in cultivation , can be
bought now at $8 per acre ; one-third caMi ,
balance on time to suit purchaser at 10 per
cent interest 100 acres , three miles from
station , all smooth , can cultivate every fool
of it : house , well , cellar : 20 acres in cultiva
tion ; price ? 10 per acre , one-half rash , time
on balance. Some claims ten miles from
station , with 100 acres tillable land , balance
good pasture land , can be had for § 150 to
§ 200 per claim of 100 acres.
SCHOOLS.
There are CO school districts in the county ,
with school in each. The Kith and JMJth sec
tions in every township in this State are
school sections.
ciiors.
We raise com , wheat ( both winter and
.spring ) , rye , barley , oats , ilax. cane , broom
com , in fact everything that can be raised
in a good agricultural country. The yield of
com is from 40 to ( JO bushels per acre ; rye
about oO : wheat from 20 to 30 bushels per
acre ; sod corn yields 23 to 35 bushels per
acre. By sod corn 1 mean where the s > od is
broken in May or fore part of June , and
com planted on it and not cultivated in any
manner whatever the entire season. Potatoes
yield an abundant crop planted on sod.
< C CL13IATE.
This is a wonderfully delightful country
and extremely healthful. Ague is unknown
here , the atmosphere being dry , bracing and
salubrious days warm , nights in summer
cool and invigorating. There are twice the
number of fair days here to any other place
I have ever lived. There was not one really
disagreable day in the month of February
just past. The farmers were busy on their
farms , most of the time the ground was in a
condition to plow and sow , during my seven
veal's' residence here there has not been a
February that the ground was not in a condi
tion to receive cultivation , at least during a
v portion of the month. January is the only
* - ' month in the year that will not admit of the
cultivation of the soil. There is very little
* . mud here , and there has not been a time in
the past seven years that the roads have
been muddy over three or four days at a
time. They are now dry and solid , and when
much travelled they are dusty.
McCooK
is the commercial metropolis of the county ,
and is a phenomenal town. There was good
judgment exercised in locating the site in
proximity to the railroad , with a beautiful
slope , sightly and attractive for residences ,
, from which a grand view appears before the
enraptured vision ; the beautiful , broad , level
valley dotted with farms ; the railroad , with
its long trains carrying commerce from ocean
V . ' to ocean , may be seen for miles up and down
f * the valley. It is a wohderf ully grand , beau-
\ ' . tiful sight 4
! are of a good , solid , .substantial character ,
f' . ' and there are some very line brick business
j . houses , noticeable among which is the First
Rational Bank building. This is an exquis *
itely finished building , very commodious ,
aud all its appointments complete. There
are live hotels , two banks , three church build
ings , throe weekly"papers , three lumbei
yards , three agricultural implement dealers ,
four hardware stores ; one hall,50x100 feet ,
with stage and accessories ; eight general
merchandise stores , and the usual numbei
of other stores to be found in a western town
of its size.
KIJ CCATIONAL 31ATTEISS.
have not been overlooked , but amid all the
din and clatter of rapid improvement has re-
ceived-a fair share of attention , and a good
graded school of four departments is well
supported. The school building is a large
structure , costing many thousand of dollars.
WATKU WOHKS.
The Holly water .system has been in opera
tion for some tiuiej and tire town enjoys the
benefit to be derived from one of the best
systems. There are now 12 miles of pipe
laid down.
THE U.S. . LAXU OKFICU
for this district is located here. What the
town needs is a good llouring mill. There
are good water privileges , an abundant sup
ply of grain , and a good home demand for
both Hour and feed. McCoolv has a large
trade from a distance , many ranchmen com
ing seventy-live miles to this place for sup
plies. McCooic is not for a day , but for all
time. Its citizens are of that class of men
who believe in energy and-rapid advance
ment , and will keep abreast of the times.
This city is connected with the outside world
by the
lifllLLXOTOX A MISSOURI JSIVEK KAILIJOAO ,
which has made this a division point for
terminal service , disbursing .3 : > T,000 monthly
to its employes. They have erected a two-
story depot , and tho .superintendent , train
master , train dispatcher and road masters
have ollices in the building. There is a round
house and repair shops alt > o located here.
The Burlington owns :5,000 : miles of well-
ballasted road , and operates , with leased
lines , over 5,000 miles. Business men have
come to this point simply on the strength of
the low freight rates , as compared with other
roads.
If on business you will save time by taking
the Burlington route ; if shipping the Bur
lington route is the quickest.

One of the best fairs in the state of Nebraska

I located seven miles north-west of ilcCook
seven years ago this spring. After making
a tree claim entry , 1 had . * 4.r : left 1 used
a tent 4 by 10 feet for my house , and lived
alone the first summer. There was not a
house in sight , not a furrow broken , not a
wagon track across this vast expanse of
prairie except as 1 made it. It was over
100 miles to the nearest station on the Bur
lington road. Am now comfortably situated
with my family on 40 acres of land ; school
house a half-mile distance , where we have
regular church service every two weeks , Sab
bath school every Sunday , and day school
half the year.
I am a fanner have worked and lived on
a farm all my life. I write this let ter for the
purpose of giving information to parties who
would like to come west and have not yet
concluded where to locate.
If you are a renter and have a ( earn and
farm implements , come west and have a farm
of your own. If yon are the owner of 40
acres , sell that and come west and get UK )
acres. If you are a carpenter , come to Mc-
Cook where you can get work at from § 2.00
to ? 2.r 0 per day. 1 have been informed that
there are nearly fifty houses under contract
already to be erected this summer. If you
are a capitalist , come west and invest in land
in 1'ed Willow county , and the rise will bring
from ten to twenty per cent , per annum.
Parties wishing further information please
address me , enclosing 2-cent stamp for reply

SOME PEOPLE.
Q . . .ITT
Hayes Centre , it appears , is becom
ing a far-famed place. It has not only
attained an altitude of importance , but
some of its people have assumed defi
ance. Two of McCook's citizens have
recently been threatened with mob law ,
if the } * should return to that place.
The offence , it is alleged , has been the
contesting of some of "Uncle Sam's
domainTs it not about time for an
other of Hayes Centre's "most promi
nent" to visit McCook ? Of the party
that left here , recently , it is reported ,
that a couple of the land agents and
attorneys composing the part } ' were so
'top heavy , " in their homeward trip , as
to fall from a loaded wagon , one of them
*
into a canyon and another under the
horses' feet , the latter being severely
kicked. Humor has it that one ot' the
aforesaid land agents and attorneys has
been doing some "peculiar" business in
the way of locating. Also that two men
with "blood in their eyes , " wanted to
interview this land man , who hied him
self away to the protection of a shelter
ing barn. It seems to me that there are
some brave aud irrepressible men about
Hayes Centre , hut it is not definitely
known where they bury their dead.
